North Carolina Wine- A Visit to Gregory Vineyards

-
I had the exciting opportunity to visit Gregory Vineyards in Angier North Carolina with several other wine-loving buddies.  What a beautiful location.  Join me as I revisit the event.
Quotes from their website:
"Escape to a quiet country setting and enjoy a picturesque view of rolling hills, 
vineyards, and spring fed lakes"

"Gregory Vineyards features lakefront Vineyards, a Winery, Distillery, Tasting Room, and Lane’s Seafood and Steak House. Learn the art of making Wine, Moonshine, Brandy, and Fortified Wines. Enjoy award winning Unfortified Wines and Fortified Wines. Relax by the fireplace, front porch or have a delicious meal."
When we arrived, they had a lovely meal prepared for us.  We enjoyed this yummy lunch along with a tasting of the Gregory Vineyard wines.
My favorite wine of the tasting was the Bald Eagle.  I did try one of their Brandy Wines.  I had the Fearless Brandy Wine because that is what I want to believe that I am:-)  
Fearless is 40 proof and packs a punch, but I found myself enjoying the experience.
My Wine Buddies.

They have a full service restaurant at the Vineyards.

Our quiet country setting is a beautiful place to host a party, wedding, or any other special event. We encourage you to come in, sit by the fire, and enjoy a glass of Sunset.

I like to select one photo to play with on photoshop from my excursions.  
I decided on the John Deer Tractor.

What a great day at Gregory Vineyards.  
The location was beautiful, the wine sweet and refreshing, and the food was lovely. 
If you find yourself in Angier NC and you like wine 
I suggest you check out Gregory Vineyards.

(This wine tasting and lunch was free for we bloggers to experience this wonderful winery.  Nothing was expected of us in return except for some social media posts, but I decided to do a blog post.  Thanks, Gregory Vineyards for an enjoyable experience!)

Travel Blast From the Past-Linville Falls Winery in the Mountains of NC

This blast from the past was written back in 2016.  Wow, where does the time go?  I checked to make sure it is still open, and it is. Happy day! Linville Falls Winery After our somewhat strenuous hike down to the lower falls of Linville Gorge, Erica and I decided to reward ourselves with a visit to a local Winery,  Linville Falls Winery  All the way up the Gorge Trail on this somewhat warm fall day, we kept encouraging ourselves with the promise of wine and relaxation.  And it was just as we imagined...wonderful:-) Here is a description from their website. "Family owned and operated, Linville Falls Winery is the culmination of a life-long passion for wine by owner, Jack Wiseman. Wiseman has dreamed of growing grapes and opening a winery for more than 25 years, and now he and his family are pioneering a new High Country wine in Linville, North Carolina.
